Nuclear superfluidity : : pairing in finite systems / / David M. Brink and Ricardo A. Broglia.

Nuclear Superfluidity is an advanced text devoted exclusively to pair correlations in nuclei. It begins by exploring pair correlations in a variety of systems including superconductivity in metals at low temperatures and superfluidity in liquid 3He and in neutron stars. The book goes on to introduce...
